For a second year in a row, Guardiolas only consolation was to lose to the eventual winner.2015/16 - Lost to Atletico Madrid 2-2 on away goalsDespite these semi-final defeats, Bayern started as favourites for the tie and the tournament in the last four in 2016 but were beaten once again - this time on away goals by yet another Spanish side in Atletico Madrid.
